Relative of the television family the Duggars, Amy Duggar just expressed her willingness to adopt all 13 siblings of the House of Horrors in California. Amy Duggar, who is also a victim of abuse, said she wants to show the children "true love."
The Turpin family residing in Perris, California made headlines worldwide after the news about a horrific abuse inside their home was confirmed. Husband and wife David Allen Turpin, 57, and Louise Anna Turpin, 49, were arrested for abusing, starving, and chaining their own children. Police officers found and rescued all 13 children, ranging from two to 29 years old. The officers found some of the children shackled and others malnourished.
During an interview with Dr. Phil, Louise's sister Elizabeth Flores said one of the daughters would first ask permission if she can eat. "She would literally just sit there I remember with her little arms like this waiting for permission to eat," Flores said.
After the news rocked the U.S., Duggar took it to Twitter to tell everyone about her plans to help the victims recover. "I just texted Dillon (Amy's husband Dillon King) and told him I wanted to adopt all 13 Turpin children. I would love to show them true love and have a beautiful life and provide a secure and stable home for them. #ifonly #houseofhorrors. God can restore what the devil has stolen," Duggar tweeted.
Duggar's post generated a number of support from her followers. She added, "I would get them real counselling and love them so much. I hope they go to a genuine sweet family who will help them and support healing for their lives. I can't believe this world... it seriously breaks my heart."
Duggar also mentioned that as a Christian, she is fully against the crime of "hurting children, abusive situations, batter women."
Duggar also took a shot at David and Louise who are now facing a number of charges. Duggar slammed the two that they deserve severe punishment for what they did to their own children.
Duggar and her husband Dillon are now trying to contact the Turpin siblings to give them support.
